		<description><![CDATA[A week-long vigil for Gilad Shalit began outside Downing Street today. It has been arranged by the FZY, who deserve a massive round of applause for this and other initiatives for Gilad. It was great to be there today, and to see so many positive reactions from passers-by. People stopped to take a leaflet, to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was a powerful article by Leon de Winter in yesterday&#8217;s Wall Street Journal. He analyses the fall-out of the flotilla incident and discusses what drives the selective hatred of Israel among European people. De Winter begins with the Free Gaza group, which was behind the flotilla: &#8216;Well, Gaza is already free. Israel withdrew from [...]]]></description>

As I&#8217;m not Jewish this is a very understandable question. I&#8217;ve never properly answered it before for several reasons. A lot of my motivation is instinctive and therefore unexplainable, some [...]]]></description>
